Roller Coaster || Seongjoong ||

21.

"What are you even planning on doing to a child?" Hongjoong asked, frowning as he grimaced. His eyes fixed on the sky as he laid on the grass, the most relaxing he had done after all these days of stress at school.

After a couple days from Jongho's quite unusual event, they had decided to take a rest in the park nearby the school. All six of them laying down except for Seonghwa, who was sitting on the grass, holding a sleeping Jongho in his arms.

Seonghwa raised an eyebrow, the blonde barely even said a word to him since almost a week ago and now he was opening his mouth to ask that sort of thing?

"If you ask that way, it sounds creepy" Wooyoung answered even if the question wasn't for him.

"I don't want to harm him, I just think it would be great if his parents found out about all the things he does in the classroom" Seonghwa ignored Wooyoung's reply and spoke, shrugging his shoulders slightly.

The youngest of the group, even though he aced his performance that day despite the whole drama beforehand, told the rest of the thing that kid Haruki had been doing as a 'problem child' during class hours. Seonghwa touched the subject again when the idea of the sleeping boy feeling less of what he was made the oldest almost grind his teeth.

"Well, the thing that matters most is that Jongho did it perfectly either way, so let's not just treat him as he isn't capable of defending himself, he knows he'll be alright" San mentioned, not moving an inch from his position nor opening his eyes.

"Hm, you sound quite sure" Yeosang said.

"Of course I am, he's my blood" He rolled his eyes, finally sitting down.

"Alright, I'm going home, 'm too tired to think" Yunho sighed as he slowly stood up, gathering his things from his backpack.

"You're not even thinking" Mingi giggled, not moving from his spot.

"I'm leaving with you" Wooyoung followed, doing the same thing as the taller and glancing at Yeosang as a way to ask if he would also join.

"I'll go too'' But Yeosang was the one who shook his head, instead, San spoke as he got close to Seonghwa, who carefully tried to wake the youngest up.

Wooyoung gulped, still not quite ready to be alone with San after barely even interacting with each other since the sleepover. He felt the same tension with their hyungs but for some reason, it bothered him so much that these days it seems confusing to interact with his own group. Maybe there's too much happening.

He wants to think that.

All four of them walked in silence after leaving the rest of the group hanging out in the park.

Wooyoung assumed the Choi Brothers were gonna be the first ones to wave goodbye, as the usual routine, but this time, they took a route closer to Yunho's house, who smiled he would always do and left quite hurriedly.

At least they had Jongho to avoid whatever the oreo haired feared to face with San.

"I know your house is closer but do you mind coming with us home first?" The older one asked.

Both Wooyoung's eyebrows got up from the surprise.

"U-Uh...sure"

Jongho's sleepiness got him quiet, however, everything felt somewhat safe until the black haired whispered something to the younger before he grabbed the keys and headed inside.

"You don't have to feel pressured to start something so suddenly when you're not comfortable yet'' San vaguely said, now both boys alone outside the black haired apartment.
